2. Position the child restraint on the seat. Al-

ways follow the child restraint manufactur-

er’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should be

secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head re-

straint or headrest to obtain the correct child

restraint fit. If the head restraint or headrest

is removed, store it in a secure place. Be

sure to reinstall the head restraint or

headrest when the child restraint is

removed. See “Head restraints” or “Adjust-

able headrest” in this section for head re-

straint or headrest adjustment, removal and

installation information.
If the seating position does not have an

adjustable head restraint or headrest and it

is interfering with the proper child restraint

fit, try another seating position or a different

child restraint.

3. Route the seat belt tongue through the child

restraint and insert it into the buckle until you

hear and feel the latch engage. Be sure to

follow the child restraint manufacturer’s in-

structions for belt routing.
If the child restraint is equipped with a top

tether strap, route the top tether strap and

secure the tether strap to the tether anchor

point (rear seat installation only). See “In-

stalling top tether strap” in this section. Do

not install child restraints that require the use

of a top tether strap in seating positions that

do not have a top tether anchor.

4. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fully

extended. At this time, the seat belt retractor

is in the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)

mode (child restraint mode). It reverts to

Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode

when the seat belt is fully retracted.
